Personal Experiments
Testing ideas, habits, and hypotheses to optimize life and work; n=1. I admit this to be unscientific.
In Progress

Planned
Meditation Practice

Planning to implement daily 20-minute meditation sessions to measure impact on stress levels, focus, and emotional regulation. Currently gathering baseline data.
Why I Run Personal Experiments
I believe in the power of systematic experimentation to optimize life and work. By treating personal habits and routines as testable hypotheses, I can discover what truly works for me rather than relying on conventional wisdom or one-size-fits-all advice.
My Experimental Framework
- Identify a variable - Something specific I want to test or improve
- Form a hypothesis - What I expect to happen based on research
- Design the experiment - Create a protocol with clear parameters
- Track data - Collect objective and subjective measurements
- Analyze results - Determine what worked and what didn't
- Implement findings - Integrate successful practices into my life
